A dog has to go when a dog has to go
A dog has made a big stink after it forced a US Airways plane to make an emergency landing after it relieved itself twice in the aisle. Fellow passengers were not amused, especially when the stench from Truffles the guide dog started to fill the cabin making them feel nauseous.
In what was described as a “rare and unfortunate situation” the pilot made the decision to touch down as soon as possible in Kansas City instead of Philadelphia so people could get a breath of fresh air. An emergency cleaning crew leapt into action to give the passengers some relief.
Some passengers took to Twitter to describe the situation. Chris Law tweeted: “So the full sized dog that’s on my flight, well it did what dogs do & went to the bathroom when it felt like it smack dab in middle of aisle.
“This flight is the total package.”
Passengers on the already delayed flight ended up arriving at their destination 14 hours late.
